Re: New from Datebook doesn't show all events

Jeff,
I want to open this thread again, because I think I have found the 
reason for the described issue. Maybe you can correct it for the 
announced release 4.5!:

I think this problem depends on the size of the DATEBOOKDB.

I purged (with datebk6) the DATEBOOKDB and reduced the size from 
223.623 bytes (2096 records) to 58.226 bytes (approx 200 records).

After reducing the size, SHADOWPLAN shows ALL events for the selected 
week when linking a datebook item to shadow with the 'Item/New 
from...' menue. Before reducing SHADOWPLAN shows only a few (for this 
week only one of 14).

I have no idea how large in detail the DATEBOOKDB should be, but if 
you can eliminate the dependency on the size of the file it would be 
great.

I'm using a palm m500 (OS4 mulitlingual).

Jeff, please send a short feedback if a solution could be expected - 
I'm about to purchase SHADOWPLAN (yes, I'm still in trail-mode ;-) 
and the import-feature of datebook items is more or less neccessary 
for my kind of GTD- and Project-Setup.

Bye, Jens
